Re: twin brain ultrasound shows something not formed From: Terry (anonymous@obgyn.net) Mon, 29 Jun 1998 09:21:04 -0500 (CDT) Messages sorted by: [ date ][ thread ][ subject ][ author ] Next message: Qing: "Use of cipro during pregnancy" Previous message: Barbara: "Re: Just a little confused...postpartum." In reply to: Correen: "twin brain ultrasound shows something not formed" It sounds like they are talking about a partial or "dysgenesis" of the corpus callosum. The Corpus Callosum is a fibrous connection between the two hemispheres of the brain. The results of Callosum absence can vary from asymptomatic to more severe. I suggest the Mum talk to a pediatrician about this if she has not already. They will probably need to do tests on the babies to determine the severity of the prognosis. Good Luck. Peace, Terry J.

Both surviving. When they had a brain scan the consultant told the parents that you have the left and right side of the brain and the `c` shaped piece in between is only partly formed and they had never seen this before in two babies. The mum desperately wants to know if anyone else has heard of this and can offer info. -- Peace through communications, Terry J.
